Floods.

HOLA.
This week was so CRAZY. I made it on the Houston news.. Again. Haha!
The floods have destroyed so much here. My area got it really really
bad. We have a lot of Ward members who lost their cars and homes. We
have been doing service all week to help clean up! On Thursday we
helped this baptist church distribute disaster relief supplies. People
were lining up to get help. I had never seen so much need before in my
life. It was very humbling to talk with them and listen to their
stories. As we started, another huge storm rolled in. The rain and the
wind came pounding down and we had to run to get all the supplies
inside the church. People started panicking and started stealing the
supplies. It was so crazy! We had to do some serious crowd control and
try to calm everyone down. Once the storm died down, everything was
fine, except for the fact that we all looked like wet raccoons. We
distributed food, clothes, and other things to help them out. If you
want to look it up, it is on the internet somewhere. Haha! Look up
Houston flood, Harvest church, Greenspoint district, Mormon
missionaries, something like that. Haha!
ORALIA GOT BAPTIZED AND IT WAS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE. She was so
cute. I just love her. The spirit was so strong.
We met this new investigator named Karina. She is super awesome! She
is actually a professional make up artist. We actually met her because
she came up to us and said we had cool eyes. Then she asked if she
could do our make up. We said yes but only if we could teach her. Heh
heh. We went over today and she did our make up and we taught her. It
was a win win for everyone.
We had transfers! I am staying in H6. This will be my 5th transfer
here! Ahhhh! So crazy! I am so happy though! I love H6 so much!
Well, be good! Read your scriptures and say your prayers! Sorry this
is so short!
